API Status Check homeCommon 1Password Issues During Outages
Vault sync failures across devices
Passwords and items saved on one device may not sync to others when 1Password's sync servers are experiencing issues.
Browser extension not responding
The 1Password browser extension may fail to auto-fill, not recognize saved sites, or show a spinning loading indicator.
Account authentication errors
Logging into 1Password on a new device may fail during authentication server outages, even with valid credentials.
Watchtower and sharing failures
Security audit features like Watchtower and item sharing between team members may be unavailable during outages.
Troubleshooting Steps Before You Assume 1Password Is Down
- 1
Check status.1password.com
The official status page is the fastest way to determine if there's a known incident affecting 1Password services.
- 2
Use the offline vault
1Password caches your vault locally. If you've previously unlocked your vault on this device, your passwords are accessible offline.
- 3
Lock and unlock the extension
Lock your 1Password extension and re-unlock it with your master password or biometrics. This resolves many extension issues.
- 4
Restart the 1Password desktop app
Fully quit and relaunch the 1Password desktop app. This forces a fresh connection to the sync servers.
- 5
Try a different device
If your vault is accessible on your phone but not your computer (or vice versa), the issue may be device-specific.

Alternative Solutions During 1Password Outages
Use the offline vault cache
Your locally cached vault remains accessible even during server outages — as long as you've unlocked it on that device before.
Export and use a local copy
If you have a recent 1Password export (1PIF or CSV), you can access your credentials from that file during extended outages.
Consider Bitwarden as a backup
The open-source Bitwarden can import 1Password exports and works as a self-hosted alternative for teams needing full control.
Set up recovery alerts
Use API Status Check to get notified when 1Password's service comes back online after an outage.

1Password Status FAQ
Is 1Password down right now?
Check status.1password.com for official incident updates and Downdetector for community reports. If both confirm issues, 1Password is likely experiencing a widespread outage.
Why won't 1Password sync across my devices?
Sync failures can be caused by server outages, network issues, or version mismatches. Check the status page for known incidents, ensure all devices are on the latest version, and try signing out and back in.
Can I still access 1Password when it's offline?
Yes — 1Password stores an encrypted copy of your vault on your device. As long as you've unlocked it before going offline, you can access your passwords without a connection.
Why is 1Password not auto-filling in my browser?
Auto-fill issues can stem from extension conflicts, site compatibility, or partial outages. Try locking and unlocking the extension, or disable and re-enable it from your browser's extension settings.
Does 1Password have a good uptime record?
1Password has historically maintained very high uptime. Their status page shows current and historical incident data at status.1password.com.
